USB Composite Serial Device This example application turns the evaluation kit into a multiple virtual serial ports when connected to the USB host system. The application supports the USB Communication Device Class, Abstract Control Model to redirect UART0 traffic to and from the USB host system. For this example, the evaluation kit will enumerate as a composite device with two virtual serial ports. Including the physical UART0 connection with the ICDI, this means that three independent virtual serial ports will be visible to the USB host. The first virtual serial port will echo data to the physical UART0 port on the device which is connected to the virtual serial port on the ICDI device on this board. The physical UART0 will also echo onto the first virtual serial device provided by the Stellaris controller. The second Stellaris virtual serial port will provide a console that can echo data to both the ICDI virtual serial port and the first Stellaris virtual serial port. It will also allow turning on, off or toggling the boards led status. Typing a "?" and pressing return should echo a list of commands to the terminal, since this board can show up as possibly three individual virtual serial devices. Assuming you installed TivaWare in the default directory, a driver information (INF) file for use with Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows7 can be found in C:/TivaWare_C_Series-x.x/windows_drivers. For Windows 2000, the required INF file is in C:/TivaWare_C_Series-x.x/windows_drivers/win2K. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Copyright (c) 2010-2014 Texas Instruments Incorporated.
